Application to Calculation of Effect of Pressure on Homogeneous Chemical Equilibria and to Calculation of Integral Joule-Thomson Effects. Ind. Eng. Chem., vol. 27, 1935, p. 577-581; Chem. Abs., vol. 29, 1935, p. 3900. Use of Newton’s curves of activity coefficients in calculating chemical equilibrium constants is illustrated by application to the synthesis of NH3 and of MeOH. A simple approximate method of calculating the temperature drop on isenthalpic expansion of gas is given; specific-heat data and the activity coefficients are used. The results of both types of calculation are compared with experimental data. NEWTON, W. L. See abs. 855. NIBAYASHI, M. See abs. 2419, 2420, 2425, 2426. |
